The crazy uncle-master went on a killing spree, and the whole sect was burned to death!

Chapter 447 Huo Jinchuan Suffers!
The Yun family patriarch wore a smile, but his words were full of veiled sarcasm.

Clan Chief Huo's forehead twitched, but he still had to maintain his composure, staring at Clan Chief Yun with a forced smile.

"It was all an accident. The reason my Huo family elder was injured was because he was already wounded. Otherwise, how could two mere outsiders have killed him?"

At this point, he could only try to save face.

At least we can prevent the outside world from spreading such unpleasant rumors.

The higher one's status, the more concerned they are with saving face.

The Yun family patriarch didn't expose him again and started discussing the compensation matter once more.

After a heated debate, the two finally agreed on a reasonable range.

The Yun family patriarch left satisfied with the compensation.

“Those two alchemists from other regions seem to be talented. Let’s find a way to bring them into the Yun family.”

As soon as the Yun family patriarch stepped out of the gate, he gave instructions to the elder beside him.

The elder asked in bewilderment, "Clan leader, could those two alchemists really be something special?"

The Yun family patriarch smiled.

"Nothing more than wanting to cause trouble for the Huo family."

Elder: "..."

After the Yun family left, Clan Chief Huo, with a sullen face, summoned someone to give him some instructions, and then planned to go to the forbidden area again.

But just as he was about to set off, he suddenly remembered the map that Song Wanning had given him.

He took out a map, on which a red dot was moving and marked with a name: Huo Jinchuan.

The red dot is now moving northward, heading in the opposite direction from the Huo family's territory.

"What exactly is that brat trying to do?"

Chief Huo narrowed his eyes, unable to fathom Song Wanning's thoughts or whether the map was a trap.

What if I get played again?
That would make him look stupid.

but……

The patriarch Huo could not shake off the resentment in his heart whenever he thought of how Meng'er had been completely ruined by Huo Jinchuan and lost all hope of resurrection.

"Fine, since those two haven't come out yet, I'll go and see what that brat is up to."

After a moment's thought, he decided to take a look at the map.

So he headed toward the location marked on the map.

At this moment, Huo Jinchuan was completely unaware of the danger approaching. He had managed to repair most of his injuries, but he still had a hidden ailment in his body that would take time to heal.

Now he is worried that Chief Huo will come to kill him, so he has started looking for a place to hide as soon as he has recovered a little.

Finally, after several days of bumpy travel, he found a very well hidden passage.

The secret passage is located beneath the swamp, with layers of isolation that make it difficult for outsiders to discover.

This excellent hiding place was something he discovered by chance many years ago when he went out to train, and it is just right for him to hide now.

Huo Jinchuan sat in the dark passage, his eyes deep and thoughtful.

Having transmigrated to this world hundreds of years ago, he is no longer the carefree person he was in his previous life. His long-suppressed nature has caused some problems with his mental state.

This is also why he has been unable to ascend to immortality for so long.

If one's temperament cannot keep up with their talent, they are destined to only hold others back.

Therefore, he had always wanted to kill Chief Huo, because Chief Huo was the biggest reason for his unstable mentality.

Huo Jinchuan exhaled a long breath, suppressing the anger in his heart, and closed his eyes to begin cultivating.

He must work hard to improve his strength.

His only reliable asset is his strength.

However, after less than an hour of cultivation, a sudden feeling of dread washed over him. He abruptly opened his eyes, and in the next instant, a powerful palm strike came slapping towards his face.

Huo Jinchuan was shocked and hurriedly took out his magic weapon to counterattack, but he was still sent flying to the ground by the palm strike, slamming hard against the wall. He saw stars and was stunned for a long time. "Hmph, so you were hiding here after all!"

Chief Huo stepped out of the shadows and into the light, his face covered in icy coldness.

His dark eyes were now filled with murderous intent, making one's heart tremble.

Huo Jinchuan tumbled down the wall, spitting out several mouthfuls of blood, a hint of panic flashing across his face.

How did the old man find him in such a secluded place?

"What, you think you can escape?"

Chief Huo's lips curled into a mocking smile. With a wave of his hand, the array plate landed on the ground, and an array appeared, enveloping the two of them.

Huo Jinchuan's heart sank, and he felt increasingly threatened.

"What do you want?"

He clenched his fists secretly, a storm brewing in his eyes.

There is also dissatisfaction with oneself.

If he were stronger, he would have defeated the old man long ago.

Why should we be forced to this extent?

"Huo Jinchuan, you killed Meng'er and colluded with those two to destroy Meng'er's hope of resurrection. Do you think I would still spare your life?"

There was not a trace of love for his son in Chief Huo's eyes, only endless killing intent and disgust.

"If it weren't for the fact that you have Meng'er's blood flowing through your veins, I would have strangled you the moment you were born!"

He truly hated Huo Jinchuan.

If it weren't for Huo Jinchuan, Meng'er wouldn't have died and would still be by his side.

The suffering of these past few centuries is something no one can ever make up for.

But his words sounded like a joke to Huo Jinchuan.

He propped himself up and stood up, wiping the blood from the corner of his mouth, and decided to lay all his cards on the table.

"Don't you really know why your mother died?"

"It was clearly your fault for not protecting her properly, causing her to be poisoned, yet you insist on blaming me, a newborn child. You really know how to shift the blame."

Huo Jinchuan had wanted to say these things for a long time.

"You've got guts to shift the blame onto me just to ease your conscience!"

"Bam—"

The next instant, Huo Jinchuan was slapped away again, crashing into the wall and shaking violently before tumbling down in a disheveled state.

The internal organs inside his body were displaced by the shock, and his bones made cracking and breaking sounds. One arm was fractured, with the bone piercing through the skin and protruding, which looked extremely terrifying.

Blood continued to flow down his face. Huo Jinchuan's brows furrowed in pain. He quickly took out a pill and swallowed it, still cursing angrily as he continued:
"Even if you beat me to death, you can't hide the fact that I'm incompetent."

"What kind of man are you if you can't even protect the woman you love?"

"And you're pushing the responsibility onto the child your beloved gave birth to? If I were the mother, I would only regret meeting you in this life!!!"

In the end, he almost roared.

For hundreds of years, he tolerated that damned old man!

Who can know his pain?

"You—say that again?"

Chief Huo was surrounded by murderous aura, and there was no trace of human reason left in his eyes.

He glared at Huo Jinchuan through gritted teeth, then raised his hand again to slap Huo Jinchuan.

"puff--"

Huo Jinchuan was sent flying again, lying on the ground unable to get up, spitting out mouthfuls of blood, his eyes filled with madness.
